War is hell, and we’re in it!

We are at war! You must understand war is hell in every way.

If you want to win, you must bring every tool to bear. Civilians may die. The results my be horrible, but if you want to WIN, are necessary. In World War 2, for example, it was necessary to bring the nation’s of the Axis Powers to their knees.

War is hell, if you want to win, if you really want to WIN. Anything else simply sacrifices military men and women as political pawns.

You cannot fire half a bullet, drop a bomb only half way, or restrict your armed forces with unrealistic rules of engagement. Not if you want to WIN.

Those of us who have served in the regular, National Guard, or Reserve forces, know one does not say “pretty please” before you squeeze the trigger.

There is apparently no purpose in deciding who won a political debate except to give the national media something about which to write, given their inability to seek out and report the truth abut anything.

Political debates are not classical debates with directed subject matter and scoring systems. The purpose is simply to give voters a sense of what each candidate is about and how the candidate perceives the future.

That’s it. Nothing more. So, quit considering who won what, It is better to stick to facts, figures and getting out the vote. Certainly, we will know who won come election night.
